USA would be an international team, the teams me and LSD were talking about are club teams.

 

But USA is a decent team freddy adu baby oh yeah!

BaraBing BaraBoom, lol, I don't pay much attention to soccer, but o well, meow!

[Cominus]

And the entire world will be theirs by 2055. Be afraid!

 

Anyway, I found this article to be rather interesting. Japanese robot makers think they can make robots good enough to play against humans in soccer and win. I know some of you enjoy soccer (football), so do you think this is possible. I don't think it is. Robots just won't be as flexible and mobile as humans. Imagine getting side tackled by a robot...ouch.

Not to be a racist or anything but damn those crazy ass japs.

I'll kill myself before that happens.

 

Or get a flocking bazooka and kill them robots first. >

I can see robots being very flexible by the 50s. So I say hell yeah robots are gonna kick our ass.
